No Republicans Vote to Advance Biden's Stimulus Package - Louder With Crowder
No Republicans Vote to Advance Biden's Stimulus Package - Louder With Crowder: "No Republicans" was trending on the Twitter because no Republicans voted to advance Joe Biden's bill giving the American people $1,400. At least, that is how it was summarized. Biden deserves a modicum of credit for having a bill in the first place. He has mostly just been executive-ordering things. Possibly not even knowing what he has been signing, depending on the latest rumors you may have heard. I'm not saying I believe those rumors. But there is a reason why I would have my grandfather sign things for school that I didn't want my parents to see.
Anyway, let's get back to No Republicans.
Bjorn Lomborg: Paris Accord Would Only Lower Temperatures by 0.05�F
Bjorn Lomborg: Paris Accord Would Only Lower Temperatures by 0.05F:
The Paris Agreement, if fully implemented, would lower temperatures around the planet by 0.05 degrees Fahrenheit, stated Bjorn Lomborg, president of the Copenhagen Consensus Center and author of False Alarm: How Climate Change Panic Costs Us Trillions, Hurts the Poor, and Fails to Fix the Planet, on Friday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow.
“If all nations did all of their promises, which include what Obama originally promised, we would see temperature cuts by the end of the century of less than 0.05 degrees Fahrenheit,” Lomborg said in reference to the Paris Agreement, an international agreement brokered by the United Nations and described by the institution as “an international treaty on climate change.”

Erasing history means erasing lessons "learned".-----"A great nation, though it experiences the worst of luck, does not suddenly collapse out of the blue."
Facebook--Jim Riley
- It can happen with frightening speed!
"A great nation, though it experiences the worst of luck, does not suddenly collapse out of the blue.
The seeds of its ruin are planted long before.
The threads that lead to ultimate disaster can be traced back.
"This was particularly the case with the Third Republic.
The seeds can be seen planted during the nineteenth century; the threads are not hard to pick up and follow.
France, it is true, fell as the result of one battle that raged for six weeks in the spring and summer of 1940.
But as Montesquieu observed: “If the hazard of a battle, that is, a particular cause, ruins a State, there was a general cause which determined that this State had to perish from a single battle.”
Yet only a quarter of a century before, the Third Republic had been strong enough, its government, Army, people, and institutions tough enough, to survive a succession of bloody and disastrous battles.
In the ensuing twenty-five years something happened that sapped that strength and toughness so that at the first visitation of adversity the Republic floundered and expired.
This is the subject of most of this book.
...As the French poet-diplomat. Paul Claudel once observed: “It is not enough to know the past. It is necessary to understand it.”
The lessons follow from that."

"In a process marked by “ignorance and incompetence,” San Francisco’s school board voted to rename 44 schools, ratifying historical errors and angering parents of “Remote School 1, Remote School 2 and so on,” writes Joe Eskenazi in Mission Local.

- The board, which is in no rush to reopen schools, spent five seconds confirming the cancelation of “Abraham Lincoln.” The Great Emancipator isn’t fit to have a school named after him because he supported the transcontinental railroad and the Homestead Act, which opened up the West for settlement, which displaced indigenous peoples.

- Based on a Top-10 list from the History Channel website, the committee condemned Paul Revere for fighting against the Penobscot Indians. In fact, he fought the British (not very well) at Penobscot Bay, named after the Indians, who were not involved.
- James Russell Lowell, a poet, diplomat and abolitionist, “did not want Black people to vote,” a committee member said. Not true, states a biography. Also, Lowell High was named for the Massachusetts town, not the man.

How Socialism Wiped Out Venezuela’s Spectacular Oil Wealth
How Socialism Wiped Out Venezuela’s Spectacular Oil Wealth
"Venezuela has the world's largest proven oil reserves and yet the country has run out of gasoline.
The socialist government has lost the capacity to extract oil from the ground or refine it into a usable form.
The industry's gradual deterioration was 18 years in the making, tracing back to then-President Hugo Chávez's 2003 decision to fire the oil industry's most experienced engineers in an act of petty political retribution.
The near-total collapse in the nation's oil output in the ensuing years is a stark reminder that the most valuable commodity isn't a natural resource, but the human expertise to put it to productive use.
"At this moment Venezuela is living through its worst nightmare,"...
The Venezuelan oil industry turned a once poor agricultural nation into an important geopolitical player and one of the region's richest countries.

NASA Confirms Falling Sea Levels For Two Years Amidst Media Blackout
- Sea level has been rising for the last ten thousand years, since the last Ice Age
The question is whether sea level rise is accelerating owing to human caused emissions.
It doesn't look like there is any great acceleration, so far, of sea level rise associated with human warming.
These predictions of alarming sea level rise depend on massive melting of the big continental glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica.
The Antarctic ice sheet is actually growing. Greenland shows large multi-decadal variability.
- There is no evidence so far that humans are increasing sea level rise in any kind of a worrying way.

Erasing our history!-----Leftists: Melt Statue of Former CA Mayor for Planting American Flag
Leftists: Melt Statue of Former CA Mayor for Planting American Flag"Thomas Fallon was a soldier in the Mexican-American War and a mayor of San Jose, California, but now left-wing activists are calling for “melting” the bronze statue erected in his honor because they believe he was a racist and a white supremacist. 
He planted an American flag in 1846 into the city’s soil to claim the land for the United States.
...Community members used their 1-minute allotted time to persuade city officials to get rid of the controversial 16-foot-tall statue, many using the same words to describe Fallon’s legacy: Colonialism. Imperialism. Racism. Injustice. White supremacy. Violence. Genocide.
Fallon was one of the “soldiers of John C. Fremont’s brigade that was involved in the war with Mexico” from 1846 to 1848, and he went on to serve one yearlong term as San Jose’s 10th mayor, said Albert Camarillo, a Stanford University American history professor and historian...

Rick Scott: Democrat Coronavirus Proposal a 'Bailout' to Liberal States:
Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) said in a statement Monday the Democrats’ $1.9 trillion coronavirus proposal amounts to nothing more than payback to liberal states that helped Democrats during the recent elections.
Scott, a former Florida governor, said Republicans want to pass targeted relief to help Americans suffering from the economic effects of the coronavirus; however, he added that they should not bail out liberal states such as New York, Illinois, and California. He also noted that liberal states are starting to see tax revenue growth, which further calls into question the need for state and local government aid in a coronavirus package.

"The number of active hate groups in the U.S. has declined, according an annual count by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
But unfortunately – and not surprisingly to anyone who has read the news — it found no accompanying decline in hate and extremism.
..."The far-right remains highly mobilized and extremely dangerous," with the number of threats from the far-right as high as in the years before the Oklahoma City bombing, says SPLC senior research analyst Cassie Miller.
Last week, the Department of Homeland Security released a bulletin warning of "a heightened threat environment across the United States" from domestic violent extremists.
...The SPLC defines a hate group as "as an organization or collection of individuals that – based on its official statements or principles, the statements of its leaders, or its activities – has beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics. An organization does not need to have engaged in criminal conduct or have followed their speech with actual unlawful action to be labeled a hate group.".
...The law center also calls for a shift in approach to violent extremism: away from punishment, and toward prevention.
